On behalf of the entire staff of the Westbury Wellness Center, I'd like to thank the following for helping to make the grand opening and ribbon-cutting ceremony a huge success.

Many thanks to North Hempstead Town Councilman Robert Troiano, Westbury Village Deputy Mayor Joan Boes, Westbury Village Trustee William Wise, New York State Assemblymen Chuck Lavine and Rob Walker, Oyster Bay Councilwoman Rose Walker, Westbury Library Trustee Lawrence Boes, Westbury School Board members Dr. Pless Dickerson and Lawrence Zaino, Central Westbury Civic Association President Manny Sweat, Westbury Village Parks Commission member Elaine Lovell, Westbury-Carle Place Chamber of Commerce President Steve Levy, State Bank of Long Island/Westbury Manager Joanne Davis, Nassau Family Court nominee Stacy Fleisher-Bennett, Welcome to Westbury contributor Ray Muntz, our families and many supportive friends.

Senator Michael Balboni, a constant supporter, extended his best wishes via Councilman Walker. The positive energy generated at the event and camaraderie fostered among community members, guests and the staff were truly enjoyable to see. The fact that they took the time out from their busy schedules to attend was very much appreciated. Many, who just could not attend, extended heartfelt well-wishes as well. Having grown up in Carle Place, then living in Westbury, and now working in Westbury, compels me, personally, to express sincere appreciation for the persons most responsible for the betterment of our community. Again, many, many thanks to all.
